Twilight Zone: Hidden Wonders of the Ocean

Explore the mysterious ocean twilight zone through a 24-minute cinematic journey, seven interactive installations and six XR activations. Created by ARTECHOUSE Studio with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, it blends immersive art, science and music. About It’s dark. It’s deep. It’s alive. Twilight Zone: Hidden Wonders of the Ocean invites visitors to descend beneath the ocean’s surface and explore one of Earth’s largest and least-understood habitats. Created by ARTECHOUSE Studio in collaboration with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, the exhibition transforms groundbreaking ocean research into a visually stunning experience blending digital art, interactive technology and an original musical score. At its center is a 24-minute immersive cinematic journey inspired by diel vertical migration—the largest daily animal migration on Earth. Seven interactive installations and six extended-reality activations further explore bioluminescent creatures, environmental DNA, sonar technology, ocean robotics and the twilight zone’s vital role in marine ecosystems and climate regulation. The exhibition opens September 19 at ARTECHOUSE NYC, located inside Chelsea Market, and runs through November 16, 2026. Read more Toggle Installation Film / Video Digital Audio / Sound
